BETRAY
Marc teamed up with BTD's vocalist Casper and BTD's guitarplayer Marco to form a new band called BETRAY. Marco picked up the drums and from punkband THE MUCKRAKERS Paul and Boris both joined on guitar. This band started as a straight edge band with political lyrics, being part of a small scene in which also bands like PROFOUND (later MANLIFTINGBANNER) and SEEIN' RED participated. BETRAY recorded one 7" for the German label Crucial Response Records (thanx again Peter!).

BETRAY only played a couple of shows: one in Holland, one in Belgium, one in Germany and some in the UK on the split tour with belgium political straight edge band RISE ABOVE. After this tour the band split in 1991, leaving a already recorded second 7" on the shelf, and one song of that session made it onto the Share Common Ground Benefit sampler LP from Crucial Response.
In 2005 Marc was interviewed by Nico for the Sailin'On Zine. Nico suggested to put some of the never released songs on the web, so here they are.
Admiration was recorded in 1990 and released on the Crucial Response 7". All the five other songs were recorded in 1991, and "Into The Limelight" appears on the Crucial Response Sampler Share Common Ground.
The other four songs were meant to be Betray second 7" called Ancient History.
Well, here are the songs. Enjoy.
Please check in later: i'll upload the artwork for the Ancient History 7" so you can print a nice cover for your homeburned CD!
